Topic: columnists needed

im starting a new website called the beat matrix, cos ive noticed a distinct lack of websites about dance music on the web that are filled with analytical and opinionated material, most seem to be just factual news.

the site will basically be an e-zine and one part of it is every month there will be three columns. i need people who are willing to write almost an essay on certain topics.....

the first issue, scheduled for october will have the following topics for the articles....

1. should a dj be limited be genre?

2. this high-culture clubbing scene (i.e. progressive house etc.) why do they hate hard house and commmercial trance?

3. thoughts on the commercialisation of so caled dance music sell outs such as paul oakenfold after his pop tune starry eyed surprise...

i hope to collect 4 pieces per topic but will be trying to get an even amount for contrasting opinions.

if you are interested then please dont just go and write something, please just reply on this board as i wont to sort of brief people more specifically.

i will upload a url as soon as soon as i have finished the design for the site.

if you are interested then the some other things in this months issue will be:

::: an interview with damian harris aka midfield general (hopefully: if not looking into interviewing somebody from either bedrock or bxr)

::: stereotyped : a comical articles on the stereotypical sub cults of dance such as the "crasher kid"

::: welcome to.... magaluf (each month there will be a sort of club scene review of a certain area)

Being a Frog not of this planet, and not being to 'Oh fey' with earthy kinda stuff, erm well I got all excited and mailed ya >>Whoops<<

However 'ME'

Space Life is something that gets in the way, just when your having fun!!<i></i>

Those who were dancing looked quite insane to those who could not hear the music!!

SpaceLife should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside,thoroughly used up, burnt out and loudly proclaiming, Wooo Hoo, what a ride!!!

Re: columnists needed

and me please mate - again I don't know how much time I can spare on a regular basis but would certainly be willing to contribute ad hoc. I've written a few internet articles before for Wanted Records (now defunct online record store)
